Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacillus, is one of the most prevalent, widespread, infectious, and deadliest diseases in the world. In this work, a compact and sensitive biosensor based on an etched single-mode–multimode–single-mode (E-SMS) optical fiber structure was developed for the rapid detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Ag85B protein in phosphate buffered saline solution. This biosensor, based on the multimode interference produced into an E-SMS structure, was fabricated by chemical etching of the cladding region of the multimode fiber, followed by the immobilization of the anti-Ag85B antibody on the surface of the etched region. The functionalized E-SMS biosensor provided high selectivity in the detection of Ag85B protein, with the ability to detect biological interactions in a range of 1.31 µg/mL to 4.36 µg/mL, with a sensitivity of 2.3 nm/(µg/mL); also, signal was even obtained at concentrations as low as 80 ng/mL. This sensitive label-free biosensing technology could contribute significantly improve Mycobacterium tuberculosis detection, management in clinical diagnosis, and medical treatment of infected patients.
